2017What determinesyour decision to joina medical aid?
Is it the add-on’s, you know… the free gym membership and movie tickets or, is it the reliable and affordable medical cover without the unnecessary hidden costs that you know you’ll receive when you need it most?
When you phone a call centre, do you want to deal with an administrator that divides attention between members of several medical aids – or do you want peace of mind knowing that your medical aid will be there for you – tomorrow, the next day and as long as you need it?
If it is:• real, sincere and secure medical cover,• dedicated and personalised service,• the security of belonging to a well established medical aid,• service that will exceed all your expectations,
then your choice is simple... Selfmed
At Selfmedwe cutstraightto the core
Our approach to healthcare makes us stand out from the rest.
What makes our administrator so unique?
All of Selfmed’s options offer:
In a traditional medical aid / administrator environment, all administrative functions rest with an administrator. As such, a medical aid would be fully dependent on its administrator to inform it of any problems or complaints received from members. Selfmed controls its own administration and call centre - better known as the “Excellence Centre”. Through this model, Selfmed takes total ownership of all member interaction and can address any administrative problems or complaints from members immediately and provide total member satisfaction.
